Video Surveillance Storage Insurance Program by TimeSight

TimeSight Systems, Inc. announced the industry’s first Video Storage Insurance Program. This unique program guarantees customers will obtain the required resolution and retention across all high resolution video surveillance cameras at the quoted price, or TimeSight Systems will provide the needed additional storage capacity at no additional cost. The company is offering this insurance across lines of its intelligent Network Video Recorders (NVRs) which deliver VLM capability and are equipped with dynamic H.264 and Motion Optimized Recording (MORe) features.

"As video surveillance data becomes a recognized corporate asset and high resolution cameras become more affordable, security departments everywhere are looking to eliminate grainy video without incurring additional costs, most notably storage," said TimeSight Systems chairman and CEO Charles Foley. "TimeSight Systems’ unique VLM technology with MORe combined with this unique Insurance Program will enable users to embrace high resolution digital based video cameras without requiring the usual massive storage capacities or exceeding their video storage budget."

Through its patent pending encoder and rules engine that delivers dynamic compression of video surveillance data over time, TimeSight appliances enable the optimum resolution of video data when it’s most needed and longer retention times, all while reducing storage requirements by up to 90 percent compared to existing video surveillance recorders.

"This insurance program insures the user receives the entire economic value proposition of high resolution cameras by eliminating the single barrier to higher image quality, complete coverage, and longer retention times," said James Connors, principal at N2N Secure, a leading security and risk management firm headquartered in Santa Clara, Calif. "Given the current tough economic conditions, eliminating the risk/cost trade-off of meeting increased physical security demands is both timely and welcomed."

The TimeSight family of video surveillance appliances covered under the Video Storage Insurance Program consists of four models that include pre-installed TimeSight VLM server software and storage. In a single compact unit, users can capture, store and manage all their high resolution surveillance video data for months of retention versus only days or weeks as limited by traditional recorders. TimeSight features make high resolution effective and affordable.
